24.9.12

Just two weeks ago we were swimming in the sea under a perfect blue sky.
(Quite unexpectedly, because we didn't have much of a summer here.)
And now, suddenly, it's autumn. Very much so.
Rain is pooring down day after day, it's cold, it's windy and, I must say:
It does have it own charm!

So, instead of sulking about a summer that never really started,
(except for that one day)
let's embrace autumn, with it's own happiness.
Blend in some seventies styling for the ultimate autumn feeling.

Snuggle under your handmade crochet throw, with a good book.
The cat purring next to you.

Of course - I know it's kitsch.
But for 50 cents I couldn't resist this sweet little bird at the thriftshop...

It's nice enough to give a little kitsch bird a new home,
but real birds are the ones that really need our protection.Today the Dutch queen wore a hat made of feathers...
Many birds died for that silly hat.

WELCOME
